Yummy Low Carb Recipes You Need In Your Life!

Yummy low carb recipes!

One of the first ‘problems’ people instantly bring up when considering a higher fat, lower carb lifestyle is the lack of inspiration for tasty meals. No bread, pasta, rice or potatoes can sound boring to some people. And maybe even a little daunting if these food items make up your current daily menu.

Following the SAD (Standard American Diet) would probably see some form carbohydrate constitute part of each meal; think cereal for breakfast (however healthy it claims to be), a sandwich at lunch and pasta for dinner.

But the problem with meals like these, and any containing processed and refined carbohydrates, is that they may fill you up immediately, and taste delicious, but they will overload your body with the wrong kind of energy, leaving you feeling bloated, and hungry again shortly after.

They will also cause blood sugar levels to spike, and doing this consistently can lead to health conditions such as diabetes.

But Melissa, I love my food, and I would miss all my favorites!
